which can weaken the integrity of the entire<br />

block or head. Dart metallurgists confer with<br />

experts at our partner foundries on a regular<br />

basis to ensure that every step of the casting<br />

process is carefully observed and controlled.<br />

Casting design also factors heavily into the<br />

quality of the final product. Dart’s R&D<br />

(Research & Development) department is<br />

involved in casting design from the earliest<br />

stages. Dart components use “chills”, special<br />

metal inserts into the casting mold which<br />

cool the metal at a different rate in the area<br />

around them as it is being poured. This allows<br />

us to control more than just the final shape of<br />

the part and quality of the alloy. It allows us to<br />

increase the final density of the metal in the<br />

specific areas that need it most. Techniques<br />

like this allow us ultimate control over the<br />

final casting.<br />

Dart maintains a large inventory of raw castings which must be ordered months in advance in<br />

order to keep our production and delivery times on a tight schedule.<br />

With the quality, strength and performance<br />

of Dart castings, you can be assured that<br />

you’re getting the best components money<br />

can buy.<br />
